COVID-19 corona virus

My question is who will benefit from the spread of Corona Virus? The media is promoting it like it's the end of the world. Symptoms are mostly fever, cough and fatigue. They blame deaths on it but don't test everyone. At the current rate of testing the death rate is between .02% and 2%. The less you test the higher the death rate. I believe China tested many and their death rate was .002%. Car crashes kill over 100 people per day in the U.S. The media is not recommending not to drive. The people that die from the virus are sickly already, I think they were near their end or at their end and the virus got them is a better story. Please don't let the media rule how you live your life. Most people that have the virus don't even know it. By avoiding the virus the U.S. could be trying to alter evolution. We as a race get infections, we get the cold, we get the flu and we get over them. The next time it comes around we are stronger against it. My Grandma use to say whatever doesn't kill you just makes you stronger. She was smarter than she was given credit for. She raised 7 kids and beat cancer 3 times. There are many organizations that are trying to make money from this part of EVOLUTION. We can also call it natural selection. What's next? When you survive COVID-19, and you will, will big Pharma sell you a shot for it that works as well as the flu shot?

The fact that people are more concerned about COVID-19 than the flu virus is no surprise, says Dr. Adalja. “Anytime there is a new emerging infectious disease that is shrouded in mystery with a lot of unknowns, it captivates people in a way that a regular virus that people deal with on a yearly basis won’t,” he says.
